Denton (Texas) Guyer five-star quarterback Jackson Arnold is one of the top signal-callers in the 2023 cycle. He demonstrated why on Friday night against McKinney (Texas) Boyd.

The second of Arnold’s two early touchdown passes gave Guyer a 21-0 lead in the first quarter. On the pass, he lofted a throw to a wide-open receiver in the end zone.

A 6-foot-1, 198 pound prospect, Arnold is the No. 15 overall prospect and No. 5 quarterback in the 2023 On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 2 player in Texas.

Arnold is the highest-ranked recruit in the Sooners’ 2023 recruiting class, which ranks No. 7 in the 2023 On3 Consensus Team Recruiting Rankings and No. 2 in the Big 12. Oklahoma’s group contains six top-100 prospects, including Arnold.

The quarterback has an On3 NIL Valuation of $581K. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.

Jackson Arnold On3 Scouting Summary 

The following is the On3 Scouting Summary for Jackson Arnold:

“Tough, live-armed quarterback who quickly rose to be the top 2023 signal caller in Texas in his first year as a starter. Plays for one of the top high school programs in the Dallas Metroplex and led his team to the state title game as a junior. Plays in a spread-iso offensive scheme that heavily utilizes play action downfield passes and power running between the tackles. Shows a strong arm with the ability to generate velocity on intermediate and downfield throws.

“A light-footed athlete who consistently escapes pressure and makes plays out of the pocket. One of the tougher top quarterbacks in the 2023 cycle, carrying a considerable rushing load. A physical runner who embraces contact. Hit the ground running in his first year as a varsity starter against top competition. Has a smaller frame than some other top quarterbacks in the cycle.”
